Hailing an aerial Uber would be a breeze from this 52nd-floor Miami penthouse 2,500-square-foot terrace.

The sky-scraping Paramount Miami Worldcenter condo tower in downtown Miami is one of the first to boast a rooftop “skyport” deck designed to accommodate future flying taxis. But a stunning 4,000-square-foot penthouse on the Paramount’s 52nd floor goes one better: It comes with its own massively-sized terrace big enough to land a flying Uber right outside the front door.
“When flying taxis become a reality, this remarkable penthouse has the perfect private deck for landings,” Ivan Ramirez, listing broker with RS Team ONE Sotheby’s International Realty.
Before then, the home’s 2,500-square-foot terrace—the biggest in the Paramount—makes the perfect venue for Miami-style entertaining, with its jaw-dropping views across the downtown skyline all the way over to South Beach and the Atlantic Ocean, and even west for stunning sunsets.
A private elevator from Penthouse 5201’s three underground parking spaces whisks you up to the 52nd floor and the home’s front entrance. Inside, the residence was fully-furnished by acclaimed Miami-based interior designer Adriana Hoyos, and is being sold with all furniture and art included. “We’re finding buyers interested in this kind of luxury property prefer a home that’s move-in ready. They don’t want the headache of dealing with furniture companies and long delays,” says Ramirez.
The 4,083-square-feet of space includes four bedrooms, five bathrooms plus a den. The open-plan design makes for spacious living areas and a large eat-in kitchen. But what really sets the home apart is its acres of towering, floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the condo with light.
Outside, in addition to that flying-taxi-ready deck, there’s a sizable covered al fresco dining area and endless wrap-around terraces for taking in the views.
Records show the current owner bought the property pre-construction for $3.8 million, taking possession in August 2020. According to Ramirez, the current asking price of $5.2 million reflects, in part, the super-heated market for luxury condos in Miami right now.
The latest report from property pricing specialist RealtyHop shows that Miami has just overtaken Los Angeles as the second most expensive housing market in the US, behind New York City. Read more from Robb
